Relevant Information:

The first specimen was collected
in Peru by Norwegian aquarist Erland D. Bertelsen and the
last two was collected in the Madre De Dios region in Peru
by myself (Allan James) where they were abundant.
Aquarium care: Peaceful towards conspecifics but
territorial with its own kind. Provide a moderate sized aquarium
with hiding places such as bogwood, rockwork and plants. A
good water flow is recommended with good aeration and filtration.
Diet: Live, frozen and flake foods.
